FHSNL Lecture on January 22nd

The next FHSNL lecture will feature Karen Darby who will speak about Burin. It will take place at 7:30pm on Tuesday January 22nd in Hampton Hall at the Marine Institute on Ridge Road. There is no charge for admission.

Wanted: Church Records

At present the FHSNL website does not have copies of any church records, but we would very much like to make such records available. If any church wardens or other custodians of original parish records will permit it, we would be happy to photograph birth/marriage/burial registers and put them online. Feel free to contact our webmaster at dapike@mun.ca to make arrangements, etc.

FHSNL has partnered with Family Tree DNA, which specialises in genealogical DNA testing. Family Tree DNA offers several types of DNA tests, including its autosomal “Family Finder” test that identifies relatives through a combination of maternal and paternal lines.

For direct paternal line testing (which involves testing a man's DNA), you can also search for a corresponding surname-based DNA project by using the "Search your Surname" option on the Family Tree DNA webpage, or by clicking on "Projects" at the top of their webpage.
